is there a chance he could beat mitt romney. mitt romney has been down this road before. he thought he would win the iowa caucus in 2008 but he lost it to mike huckabee who carried the evangelical vote. what do you think needs to happen in order for romney to take iowa? >> let's go back in time and look at iowa four years ago among the republicans, it's not directly analogous, but we can learn a lot of lessons, this is governor romney over here. this is the dark red over here. if you see this starting to fill in like this for romney, that means he's off to a good start. the eastern part of the state, this is the greatest romney straight where you find more moderate conservatives and bigger populations. if he can do this again he's off to a good start. in the western part of the state, he did well, this is more conservative country, more a challenge. if you're seeing this fill in for romney, he's off to a good start. look at all of this in the middle. who's that? that's mike huckabee. these are small rural towns where you find evangelical and tea party voters these are the
